ENOUGH. We Act now!

Hunger isn’t just an empty plate—it’s lost potential, shattered dreams and lives at risk. It means weakened bodies, lost opportunities for education, and families trapped in poverty.

We say that enough is enough. It’s time to act!

The 30-Hour Famine is a global movement to end hunger and poverty that lets you stand up, speak out, and take action. As a Famine Fighter, you’ll fundraise, experience the daily struggles of millions of children, and learn about global issues.

World Food Programme

World Vision has been partnering with the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) for over 30 years as their largest non-governmental partner. In 2025, the 30-Hour Famine will support WFP's efforts to end hunger by:

• Supporting pregnant and breastfeeding women, and children under five, with malnutrition treatment and nutrition education

• Providing life-saving food and assistance to children and families affected by conflict, crises, violence, and climate-related disasters
